Hello everyone,

With heavy hearts, we are sharing the loss of our beloved Carter Lyles, who was taken from us far too soon at just 17 years old. He was kind, loving, and full of light. His infectious smile could brighten any room, and everyone who knew him felt his warmth and loved to be around him. He had his entire life ahead of him, full of dreams, potential, and so much promise.

This sudden and tragic loss has deeply shaken his family and friends. There are no words that can truly capture the pain of losing someone so young. As the family navigates this unimaginable grief, they are also faced with the unexpected financial burden of laying him to rest.

This fundraiser is meant to help ease that burden so the family can focus on what matters most right now, grieving, honoring his life, and supporting one another through this difficult time. Any donation, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to donate, even sharing this fundraiser means more than you know.

Thank you for your love, support, and kindness during this incredibly painful time.
